# CLF 35.1M House Map IE October 2026 On **e-file receipt date 2026-10-16**, **eighteen days before the election**, the [[Congressional Leadership Fund]] disclosed **$35,119,415.63** of independent expenditures across **101 Schedule E lines** in **35 House districts** on a single **Form 24** notice, file **2028923**. It is the **largest single House notice in this vault's record** and clears the **$10,000,000.00 single-buy threshold** three and a half times over. **Ninety-five of the 101 lines are negative.** The notice is, with two small exceptions, a nationwide buy against Democratic House candidates. ## Terms | Item | Detail | |---|---| | Spender | **CLF** (Congressional Leadership Fund), FEC committee **C00504530** | | Disclosed | FEC **Form 24** independent-expenditure notice, file **2028923**, `F24N`, received **2026-10-16** | | Election code | **G2026** throughout | | Lines | **101**, all live — no memo-flagged rows, no amendment rows | | Total | **$35,119,415.63** | | Districts | **35**, in 18 states | | Lead vendors | **[[Flexpoint Media]]** $17,904,849.57 (51.0%) and **[[Del Ray Media LLC]]** $15,182,989.06 (43.2%) — **94.2% between them** | ## Where the money went — the ten largest districts | Direction | Candidate | State | Amount | Lines | Cycle aggregate on the filing | |---|---|---|---|---|---| | **oppose** | [[Jared Moskowitz]] | FL | **$3,024,989.97** | 4 | $6,129,429.89 | | **oppose** | William Lawrence | MI | **$2,375,346.35** | 2 | $7,220,079.79 | | **oppose** | Don Davis | NC | **$1,958,786.28** | 2 | $8,129,903.35 | | **oppose** | Cait Conley | NY | **$1,685,008.55** | 4 | $6,467,985.45 | | **oppose** | Christina Hines | MI | **$1,664,329.90** | 2 | $6,445,131.55 | | **oppose** | Kathy Castor | FL | **$1,450,038.77** | 3 | $4,292,294.74 | | **oppose** | Bob Brooks | PA | **$1,384,248.86** | 3 | $5,018,845.49 | | **oppose** | Randy Villegas | CA | **$1,378,773.96** | 4 | $6,228,332.32 | | **oppose** | Robert Harvie | PA | **$1,358,750.00** | 2 | $1,358,750.00 | | **oppose** | Manny Rutinel | CO | **$1,241,498.21** | 3 | $5,966,256.57 | The remaining 25 districts run from **$1,179,878.42** (Vicente Gonzalez, TX) down to **$41,835.39** ([[Henry Cuellar]], TX). Also in the notice: **$1,026,717.72** against **Marie Gluesenkamp Perez** (WA), **$777,953.89** against **Marcy Kaptur** (OH) — a nineteen-term incumbent — **$931,081.77** against Rebecca Cooke (WI) and **$874,493.35** against Sarah Trone Garriott (IA). **Five districts appear here for the first time with no prior cycle aggregate**, i.e. the aggregate equals this notice: Robert Harvie (PA) $1,358,750.00, Sean McCann (MI) $825,135.00, Bobby Pulido (TX) $792,730.65, Pia Dandiya (FL) $792,378.25, Shannon Leigh Taylor (VA) $437,092.54, and Mitchell Berman (WI) $1,067,500.00. **Six new fronts opened eighteen days out** is the operational fact in this filing. > [!note] One paired support/oppose buy in South Carolina > Two lines in SC report **$374,787.50** each across 4 lines — one *supporting* Jenny Costa Honeycutt, > one *opposing* Nancy LaCore — and **share a single aggregate of $749,575.00**. That is the normal > reporting shape for one advertisement that both supports and attacks, itemised twice because IE > reporting requires the direction to be stated. The $374,787.50 is counted once in the notice total; the > two rows are not independent buys. The only other support line is **$100,000.00** for Laurie Buckhout > (NC). ## Vendors | Vendor | Amount | Share | |---|---|---| | **[[Flexpoint Media]]** | **$17,904,849.57** | 51.0% | | **[[Del Ray Media LLC]]** | **$15,182,989.06** | 43.2% | | Starboard Advertising | $980,000.00 | 2.8% | | Right Target Media | $665,000.00 | 1.9% | | Alamo Intelligence LLC | $250,000.00 | 0.7% | | Honold Communications | $26,600.00 | 0.1% | | Poolhouse · Red Elephant Strategy · Prime Media Partners · Patchwork Creative · Convergence Media LLC · OnMessage Inc. | $18,000.00 and below each | 0.3% combined | ## Why it matters **It is a map, not a buy.** Thirty-five districts in eighteen states, 95 of 101 lines negative, one notice, one day. The geography is the forecast: Michigan and Pennsylvania twice each in the top ten, Florida at the top, and six districts entering the committee's record for the first time with eighteen days left. A party committee that opens new fronts this late is either seeing opportunity or defending ground it did not expect to defend, and the notice itself does not say which. **Two vendors took 94.2% of $35 million.** [[Flexpoint Media]] and [[Del Ray Media LLC]] split almost the whole notice. Del Ray Media had already been flagged in this vault's watch list for appearing on a fourth committee and for taking 100% of a $5,000,000.00 [[MAGA Inc]] Senate buy; **$15,182,989.06 in one day is its largest appearance by an order of magnitude.** Flexpoint, meanwhile, took **$20,841,470.32** of SLF PAC's $33,080,843.43 Senate notice on the same receipt date — **$38,746,319.89 through one vendor in one day, across both chambers' leadership committees.** See [[SLF PAC 33.1M Senate Map IE October 2026]]. **Long-serving incumbents are on the list.** [[Marcy Kaptur]] in Ohio and [[Henry Cuellar]] in Texas are both targeted here, Kaptur at $777,953.89 on a cycle aggregate of $4,412,068.96. Spending against members of that tenure is a signal about the shape of the expected map rather than about either district. > [!note] What this figure is, and what it is not > This is the sum of the **live Schedule E lines on one Form 24 notice**, derived from the filed document > rather than from any API aggregation. The **cycle aggregate** column is the filing's own and its meaning > is filer-dependent; it is reproduced as reported. The notice was received while the 2026-10-16 receipt > date was still open, so the **day's** totals may rise; **this notice's** total will not. ## See Also - [[Congressional Leadership Fund]] · [[American Action Network]] - [[SLF PAC 33.1M Senate Map IE October 2026]] · [[Senate Leadership Fund]] - [[Flexpoint Media]] · [[Del Ray Media LLC]] · [[MAGA Inc]] - [[Jared Moskowitz]] - [[Independent Expenditure]] · [[Super PACs]] · [[Dark Money]] - [[2026 House Races Hub]] · [[Deals Hub]]
